The Mighty Lion!!!

Future Carpenter?

Here is another birthday picture! I am not sure if he has decided to be a carpenter or a race car driver!!! Thanks GG for the hammer! I can have fun pounding on EVERYTHING with it!

Birthday's are sooo much fun!

We can't forget his very own chair! Aunt Jacky will be remembered for this one, it has music, lights, and talks to you. Jake loves to sit in this chair and "study" while mommy is watching her favorite tv show! Then we have the birthday kiss! Not sure who had more cake on their face by the time we were done eating.

Tractors!!!

As promised here are a few more pictures from Jake's birthday weekend!

The little man is getting his birthday ride on Papa's big tractor and then later he finds out he got his OWN tractor from GG! WOW, now mastering the art of getting on it by himself because he is a big boy now and can do things himself.

Ok, so I am have been slacking. But we have had to celebrate the little man's first birthday and have his little operation taken care of. But he is ONE year old now and out of the hospital (minus adenoids). We won't discuss the hospital trip, he was not happy about the IV or the blood pressure cuff.....

But here are a few pictures taken over the past few weeks, I will try post more later.

First Hair Cut

Well the little man got his first hair cut today!!! He was so fascinated with what Joanna was doing he forgot to get upset, she even let him wear a Batman cape! I think next time he will be bringing his own squirt bottle so he can have a water fight with her. He is a little water monkey so the misting was just an added bonus for him.

Of course he has to tell her how he wants it cut.... LOL

Go FASTER!

Ok, its been awhile.... Here are a few of my favorites from the past few weeks. Jacob got his first ride on the 4-wheeler, "FASTER, FASTER GRANDPA". And of course he had to tell us all about the ride when it was over. He had a lot to say too! Those little hands and mouth didn't stop for quite a while.
He LOVES the outdoors and anything with wheels and an engine. He is up and running these days, he prefers bare feet - better traction I think.
That is string cheese he is giving thumbs up to, yeah Katie could have shot me for that one. He got a little greasy with that, but he had a lot of fun (the bath afterwards was almost as fun).
I am also sharing what it looked like around my neck of the woods on Saturday, that is a road/bridge under all the water! Luckily by Sunday the water was going down and roads were opening back up. Some are still under water as of Monday morning.
